Hello Jimmy!
We have added a tube driven spring reverb to Elisabeth???s C3. Although we
have modern and vintage reverb machines in the studio (EMT gold foil plate)
it is the swirl of the reverb tail thru the leslie 147 that makes things
interesting. It is a unit that could easily be installed via a tube socket
plug in. We love it.
But as far as studio is concerned - we give every artist the desired amount
of reverb during monitoring as it really affects the mood and hence the
performance. To hear the C3 with the reverb you can play the following
song that is currently nr. 11 in the mp3 Blues Rock Charts.
We are very successful on that site with over 20 top - 40 positions in
various genres from 2 to 38
All our tracks can (still) be played and downloaded for free from
and 2 Blue Star Cds are available from that
site as well
Most every track has the C3 on it, although sometimes in a subtle way that
is not cecognized immediately (yes, we use more registrations than
888000000) A track that features the hammond is Sarah???s Prayer from the
gospel charts
Finally a big thank you to hammond-zone member Jeff Dairiki for his kind
help with our little noise problem.
Thank you Jeff!! and love to all of you - keep that rotor spinning!!

P.S - as for the tone vs clone battle: We developed from Roland D 110 with
organ sounds to Korg cx3, dynacord leslie simulator, Hammond L 100, Allsound
Leslie, Hammond C3 and finaly Leslie 147.
At each step of our development we believed we now had the sound nailed.
Not true until we got the c3 with leslie 147 in 1993. Didn???t change
anything since. Puts a big grin on my (guitarists ) face each time
Elisabeth plays it. But we are far from being fanatic. Would love to
have that sound in a mobile package.
